Pre-ordered! Figured it's not much risk at $17 CDN, and if it at least had updated cockpit visuals I'll be satisfied. Water rendering doesn't look all that grade, but then again I'm spoiled by CloD!
Yeah... lack of proper gameplay, a test flight of some sort is really odd considering release date. I skipped pre-ordering. Will see after first reviews.
But I still don't get it. This is more like yet another reskin of FSX, it's not a new gen sim. Do we really need another variant of the FSX engine? I certainly don't.
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
Thanks for the link. I was really disappointed to see that they didn't have anything more concrete than a vague interest for VR. With FlyInside I can already have great VR for FSX and Prepar3D with my DK2 and soon my Vive, so I'll definitely skip this one until they catch up with VR. I really thought that this would be a no brainer for a new flight sim.
64 bit sure could have some potential. Like finally truly 100% eliminating the blurries. Might make for a massive loadup time but I'd be fine with that.
If most of my addons eventually work with this or can be ported over, I'd probably switch to this rather than reinstalling P3D next time a reinstall is required for one reason or another.
Well, it's out. And it's being trashed on Steam. IMHO very unfairly. Folks just didn't understand what they're getting. They expected a full blown next gen sim. But it was never advertised as that. Although i own FSX SE and P3D I intend to put some serious hours into this. It looks really nice, much better than stock P3D, runs great (i know some folks experience some issues, like AA not working), the UI is clean and very easy to navigate. For anyone wanting to try flying it's a must by. It's really worth 15$, just know what you're buying.
I completely agree with you Cheyenne. It's only 15$. Compared to single modules of DCS for ~40$ it's a steal. Maybe you've got only 2 planes and over 10 training and 9 regular missions, but you still have the whole world to fly in with ATC and AI traffic.
And the performance is better for me than in FSX SE.
I'll add more videos soon, currently I completed all up to navigation lesson (6th in US school), which are pretty nicely done.
9 regular missions are standard "transport passanger" or "oh sh*t my engine is out" type of missions, but I only played about 5 of them, and these were the short ones, the longer ones I left for later, might be more interesting.
